As per my previous post this reiterates what i heard on the radio this morning.
Doctors are concerned problems with medical insurance could delay the roll-out of the swine flu vaccine.
Dr Andrew Pesce from the Australian Medical Association says insurance companies say they may not provide indemnity cover for doctors because the vaccine has been rushed into production.
He says the Federal Government should provide insurance cover for doctors administering the vaccine.
“It’s not professional practice to give a treatment to a patient which isn’t indemnified, so the indemnity issue just needs to be sorted out,” he said.
I think the insurance companies and government know something that we done know. If its not safe enough to insure as far as i am concerned its not safe enough to administer.
